Home Automation with Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Home automation may sound like a science-fiction
| dream, but in reality it is not only commonplace,
| but relatively simple to get started, especially
| with Linux.

|
| Like any large-scale project, home automation
| demands a time investment, whether you take the
| do-it-yourself approach or use a whole-house
| system. Setting up the modules, designing
| lighting scenarios, and planning then testing the
| schedules takes time. There is also a hardware
| investment--even the simplest and cheapest
| standard, X10, begins to add up once you purchase
| a dozen or more modules and controllers; INSTEON
| and the other standards can be an order of
| magnitude more expensive. Still, the open source
| device drivers and Linux-based whole-house
| management systems are vastly less expensive than
| proprietary options, and like all open source
| code, offer the user unlimited freedom to
| customize.
